Tales of Survival and Strength

Testimonials Image

Even if its unprofitable, this is the only life we know. Pastoralism is not just our livelihood; it’s our identity. But everything has changed—routes have been closed, grasslands restricted, and the seasons no longer follow the patterns we once trusted. It’s like the mountains themselves are struggling to breathe. HPT reminds us that we are not alone in this fight to sustain our herds and our traditions

Reshma Begum
Testimonials Image

In my youth, migration was a celebration—we moved with song and prayer, knowing each stream and tree along the way. Now, each step feelsuncertain. The mountains change, the rains betray us. Yet, I continue, because the herd depends on me, and I depend on them.

Ghulam Hussain Doi
Testimonials Image

I have seen snow that never melted until summer. Today, the glaciers vanish before our eyes. The streams where my sheep once drank are dust. It feels like time itself is running faster. But leaving this life is like leaving my own heartbeat—it is impossible.
